Sectoral Analysis of Landscape Interiors (SALI) as One of the Tools for Monitoring Changes in Green Infrastructure Systems
Abstract
:1. Introduction
2. Materials and Methods
- Quantitative analysis—this is the main part of the research, consisting of calculating the percentage share of individual components of the studied landscape interior;
- Qualitative analysis—performed as a complementary element of the first part of the study, including the assessment of the character of the walls of the studied landscape interior, the form and condition of its individual components, the relationships between them, their role in the landscape, as well as cultural values.
2.1. Stage I: Initial Stage
2.2. Stage IIa
- Buildings, with division into: 1.1 residential, 1.2 utility, 1.3 facilities and services;
- Greenery, with division into: 2.1 high, 2.2 medium height, 2.3 low;
- Small architecture forms such as benches, garden houses and pavilions, fences;
- Infrastructure, including visible elements of technical infrastructure;
- Communication routes with division into: 5.1 roads with their movable and immovable elements, e.g., cars, 5.2 sidewalk pavements;
- Water—watercourses and reservoirs;
- Farmlands;
- Sky-canopy.
- a high degree of transparency, e.g., leafless trees and deciduous shrubs, metal mesh fences, electric power lines, etc., allowing the elements behind them to be seen clearly (1st degree);
- medium degree of transparency, e.g., deciduous or leafless trees and shrubs with leaves or leafless ones but with non-compact crowns, fences of different structures allowing the shapes and colors of the elements behind them to be seen but without any clear detail (2nd degree);
- a low degree of transparency, e.g., elements which allow only the outlines of the elements behind them to be seen (3th degree).
